A Bolha - Sem Nada - VINYL LP

Emerging out of the cloud that is 2020, this long anticipated EP really packs the punch everyone has been hoping for. Coming out swinging, this beloved band delivers hit after hit on this absolutely eye-catching 12Inch that looks like it was printed on glass. The title track, a rip roaring addition to the Pirates' sampler Inchfor family and flagInch wet the whistle for fans across the globe... and the remaining tracks stacked up on this incredible EP raucously complete the package! Summarizing the sentiment felt by many, it really is InchNow or NeverInch! Time to take a stand.

Vinyl LP pressing. Pavo Pavo is the recording project of Oliver Hill and Eliza Bagg. On their acclaimed 2016 debut, Young Narrator in the Breakers, Eliza's effervescent soprano was compared to Incha lovelorn alien reaching out from the farthest reaches of the galaxyInch (Pitchfork), and the elegant, symphonic arrangements were described as Inchweightless pop that sounds like it was beamed down from a glimmering utopian futureInch (Stereogum). Mystery Hour, the band's second album, is a focused, widescreen development. Channeling the narrative drama of Oliver and Eliza's changing relationship, it is an uncategorizable record that's both maximal and compact, a fever dream filled with cinematic imagery and rooted in acute emotion, written as the two were separating after a six-year relationship.

'Nothing' is Kode9's first solo album and is about nothing. The album throws horror soundtracks, sampled library and jpop records into a no man's land between grime, early dubstep and Chicago footwork. Mostly instrumental, it zigzags between hypnotic, downcast loops, growling drones, and jagged cut-ups of androids gone haywire, threaded through twitchy, transatlantic rhythms and sub-bass inaudible through your laptop speakers. Building slowly, but more upbeat than previous albums, many of these tracks have more in common with Kode9's recent singles from the last few years than they do with his two previous albums with collaborator The Spaceape, 'Memories of the Future' (2006) and 'Black Sun' (2012). Yet 'Nothing' is haunted both by The Spaceape's presence (he died in 2014 after a prolonged battle with cancer), on Third Ear Transmission, a communiqué from a zone of digital immortality, and his absence, on 'Void, whose spaces were originally intended for the vocalist, and Nothing Lasts Forever, which closes the album with a 9 minute silence. Now confirmed for as a double-LP, the initial run will be a limited edition pressing on glass-effect translucent vinyl, housed in a high quality gatefold jacket and inner sleeves displaying Optigram's remarkable artwork to it's fullest effect. Also included is a complimentary code.
